Fruit Picking in Katsuragi Town
Katsuragi is a town located in a hilly part of northern Wakayama Prefecture through which the Kinokawa River flows. The town is notable for the high density of orchards that offer fruit picking over its entire area. The farms grow a wide variety of fruits including persimmons, peaches, strawberries, plums, and jabara citrus, ensuring that visitors can enjoy some form of fruit picking all year long. The town's orchards are also notable for their great-tasting organically-grown fruit. One particularly well-known specialty of the town is its Shigo no Kushikaki skewered persimmons, which have a history dating back more than 400 years. The town has launched a major initiative to sell fruit grown in the town under the Katsuragi brand.
